Criminals Must be CAUGHT.

The County Commissioners have de-
termined to assist in bringing criminals to
justice in this county At their meeting
yesterday they agreed to make appropria-
tions for expenses of county officers engaged
in searching, under the direction of the So
licitor General for persons charged with hav-
ing committed offenses against the laws.
The course of the Commissioners will
doubtless meet with public approval. The
feeling is constantly growing stronger that
no effort should be spared to punish crimi-
mails, particularly murSlerers and those
guilty of murderous assaults. There is no
doubt that the prevalent belief, that
it is not a difficult matter to
escape, is not without its influence
in increasing the number of murders and
attempts to commit murder If murderer
gets beyond the limits of the city the efforts
to arrest him are not great unless his vic
TINS friends are willing to furnish the neces-
sary money to bear the expenses of pursuit
and provide reward
The action of the Commissioners indicates
new departure. In future those who COM
nit murder. and other heinous offenses in
this county, are to be caught and punished
if it is possible to do so. Now let us have a
strengthening of public sentiment against
those who commit crimes of violence. Let
the sentiment become so strong that no Jury
will dare to release a murderer, or to send
him to the penitentiary when he should be
hung

What Has He Gained by 1t?
Philadelphia Press.

Two weeks ago the President started from
Washington on his tour. No public business
took him on the errand. No public need
called for it, The trip is of his own making
1t is pure electioneering journey. If Presi-
dent Cleveland had not thought it would i'm
prove his chances, first of a denomination and
next of reelection, he would not have taken
it.
Has it done this? He has had great crowds
he has been greeted, in the main. with en-
thusiasm. The cheers an American crowd
always give an American President have
been his. These things he has had in abuu-
dant measure. They have been given in
like measure to other Presidents before him
and forgotten as these will be. They are
mere incidents in to-dav's story, not part OF
next years canvass. At most, they show that
President Cleveland is not personally objec
tionable. They show nothing more. We
do not suppose anyone thought he was, ex'
cept to the Grand Army, an unfortunate ex
cek ton for President of the Union. In a
general way President Cleveland has certain
straightforward qualities which commend
themselves to the mass of men when they dc
not see and hear too much of him.
But crowds do not carry campaigns. Can
didates must do this. What has Mr.. Cleve-
land done What has he said to make him.
self stronger; what line in his speeches will
be remembered; what political issue has he
raised; what platform, principle or cry has
he given his followers in all his dres-y going

He stands where he did, save that the need o.
making speeches has put in strong relief his
known deficiencies. He can not speak; thi:

it was not generally known that he had no,
sense enough to hold his tongue when he had
nothing to say or wit enough to use grace

must, from cyclopedia and census
We do not believe this revelation has helped
him. 1t has made him ridiculous and proved
him dull, and the White House is bac

The National Surplus.

In the last presidential campaign the
surplus in the national treasury was in
Weighed against by all democratic speakers
and democratic organs, The republicans
were accused OF keeping it for corrup-

many votes through the abundant promis-
es made by democratic leaders that if he
was elected the surplus should be abolish
ed. Cleveland has now been at the head
of the government nearly three years,
and the surplus is about double what i,
was when he entered upon the duties of
President. Like the promises of his sup.

civil service, those concerning the re-

than failures. The evil complained of

The Beginning of a Great Ameri-
can Uprising

A fortnight ago the Personal Liberty
party of New York met in Albany and
boldly declared in favor of open saloons
on Sunday besides intimating very strong
" its pleasure in regard to other char
acteristics of a European Sabbath. The
following weeks convention held in Penn
sylvania declared in favor of the same
objects. The New York party announced
claim to seventy-five thousand votes,
and the Pennsylvania party, double that
number. In short, there are in two States
two hundred and twenty-five thousand
voters who have declared against the
American Sabbath and all its institutions.
The declaration has been made politically
and the attempt will be made politically.
What makes this movement of greater
concern is the sympathy and assistance
given it by the democratic party, which
on account of its own straitened
circumstances more than for any
other reason perhaps, it is gen.

has grown to enormous proportions.
Senator Hiscock of New York touched
upon this matter in a speech at Corning
the other day as follows:
The New York World of to-day, in an
editorial article. accuses me of not stating
frankly all the facts concerning the surplus.
II asks me whether the republican party 10
not responsible for the surplus; whether tax
alton laws passed by its Congress did not
have the effect of rolling up this surplus. l
reply proudly. "Yes." [Applause] We
had to raise enormous sums of money to
carry on the war, and we all remember that
during that time our democratic opponents
we're prophesying that we would be crushed
beneath that vast taxation and that vast debt.
But what has been the result !! In twenty
five years we have wiped out all the debt that
is due; we have grown more and more pros
porous. till this year we find ourselves EN-.
barrassed by surplus in our treasury OF one
hundred millions.
| But we now find that the taxation laws
should be modified so as to reduce this sur
| plus. We do not want surplus there to
tempt Congress into extravagant expendi-
| ture. 1t would cause contraction OF our
currency and would profoundly injure our

ing retained to pay the expenses of govern

for the administration to indicate a policy to

There are two wings of the democracy, the
Randall wing and the Carlisle wing, but some
how they never flap together. Laughter ]
| They tell US in the Wall street that Cleveland
has grown popular. What has he doner He
has done nothing. He has simply permitted
the republican laws to stand. The govern
ment has gone along just as we established it.
He has sat silent, while the surplus was roll

that they have been deceived, are clutching
